  • One of the deadliest animals in history, the leopard of Panar took 400 human lives in remote villages of the Himalayan foothills, before being accounted for by Colonel Jim Corbett in the year 1910. An account of this hunt was later penned by Jim Corbett in the story of the Panar Man-Eater (1954).

    The previous recording of this story was much loved but suffered from substandard and choppy audio. It had been bothering me for a while so finally, I was able to find time to re-record it with additional sounds embedded within the narration for a better listening experience. Thanks for all the interest in these stories from a bygone era.

    I am slowly working my way through the whole collection of stories you have kindly recorded. This one I enjoyed especially thanks to the inclusion of the sound effects. I see from your description that you have recorded this story before, so thank you for all your effort in bringing these amazing stories back to life on a medium that Corbett could never have imagined. I am sure he would thoroughly approve of your efforts :)

    I run a podcast called "Force of Nature" and on my show we have covered several of Jim Corbett's stories. I recently found this channel and am grateful for them. Currently working on an episode on the Panar man-eater. And being able to listen to it has helped a lot for research.
    Much respect. I plan on giving the channel a shoutout on my show too. Maybe send some listers your way.

    I don’t know if people know this but there’s an actual surviving photograph of the Panar leopard. Which is very surprising because I don’t know how Corbett was able to photograph the animal in 1910 when cameras must have been very very rare and this leopard was shot in an extremely remote location.

    • @jimmyh8090
      @jimmyh8090 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The photo would of been one of Jim Corbett own pictures, photography and making films of wildlife was a hobby of his . His pictures are in some of his books and i think I read somewhere that he was the first person to film a tiger in the wild

      @@jimmyh8090 you are right. He was one of the first. FW champion, a close associate of Corbett, would have been the first.
      No doubt it would have been Corbetts personal picture but cameras were quite big and heavy back then so still surprising that Corbett chose to have his men carry a camera to that remote area when he wasn't even sure if he would find the leopard or not.

These stories are very popular in Kannada in name of HIMALAYADA NARABHAKSHAKAGALU ( the Man eaters of the Himalaya). This book is in TOP 10 for several years. Particularly Man eating leopard of Rudraprayag story was translated by K P Poornachandra Tejaswi.

    It seems that even though the Panar Leopard 🐆 killed more humans, the Rudraprayag Leopard had to be more careful and cunning to survive the likes of Corbett and traps and such? Thus more publicity he received? Both were just as formidable as the Tsavo Lions. Two man eating Lions 🦁 that moved freely in an 8 mile camp with 4000 terrified workers, mostly from India. I do admire Corbett as I also respect those 4 big cats that reigned hell and terror down on mankind, who have no one but themselves to blame for them becoming man eaters!
